1000cc ???

gt35r????


shooting for 500hp ???

Well this is all dependent of me selling my long block for the H6. But yes Backalleyracer, I'm gunning for at least 500whp. =)

I'm curious... I'm sorry if you already mentioned it but did you keep the final drive from the swap? If not what are you running now?

My final drive ratio is 3.90.

goddamn thats long. Are you going to shorten it up a bit or planning on leaving it as is?

IMO I think I want the gearing to be slightly longer, with the amount of torque I was putting down before the turbo I think its going to be fun banging gears while racing down the straight on Willow.

I guess it's really going to depend on your final power output. Also if this is your DD then it will greatly affect things. I really just was curious... I'm unsure of what your own personal goals are with the car so I will wait until you make it very clear for me.

Actually I'm daily driving my '91 3000GT VR-4 currently but I'm looking to get rid of it. This car is going to be the center piece of my friend's company and it will essentially be a jack of all trades. Drag, road race and occasionally a street terror haha.

Ok...I want one..bad. I'll trade you my soul for your car once it's finished! My soul is worth a lot! In mint condition too! AC blows ice cold! New brakes and tires. Kidding of course...just wish I had that kinda cash. *sigh*

I helped build that beast, we did that run with a gt35r with 850cc injectors and a crappy sds all on pump gas with no water or alchy injection. just and fyi DC Performance has an awd dyno pack so if you need tuning just holla at your boy.

I appreciate the offer but I'm most likely going to be tuning the bish myself, street tuning ftw? I also have Sean at Church who is dying to tune it when its done.

Also, I called Cosworth today about the best pricing for their long blocks, and well... I got a killer deal that I might not be able to turn down. I just need to sell my stock motor to a customer. =)

OMFG COSWORTH?! *sigh* I wanna be a baller.

You mean you just wanna work harder

Wow, that downpipe is just brutal...

Yup custom 3" V-band, Monday maybe Tuesday we are pulling the motor out of my car and selling it to a customer, which is going to get a Brian Crower stroker kit.

My friend (Who is also the shop owner) is putting in a 2.3L stroked 4g63 which along with the custom Water to Air is going to spool his GT35R fast as hell.

Not to many updates as of late, I'm working my ass off on several other cars and haven't had time to do anything with my car, but I did manage to nab a dry carbon hood from our time attack car and is going to be repainted to match my car. Super sleeper ftw? Pictures will be coming soon after I get my camera back from my friend.

sweet build. keep up the good work

Major Update: After stashing away enough money to finally move my project to the right direction, my GM6 was sent to a very top secret location.

Car on the trailer


Tow vehicle. 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax with PPE tuner.


My car locked and loaded.


Last glimpse of this configuration... Bye 300hp!


Now some of you may be wondering, "Hey, where did you take your car?" Well... I'm not gonna give it away but here is a huge clue... lol


Engine bay of the Yimi Sport Time Attack 08 STi


Another update is in-order shortly, after some more parts arrive. But I have yet to order my Aeromotive Top feed fuel rails and fuel pressure regulator, so that is top priority.

Some pictures of the cars that were outside RPM Performance which is right across from Yimi.


This license plate would make me giggle with delight on the freeway.

Ah Yimi Sport. Never been there but two buddies who own GRs go there. Their Legacy is nuts!

I approve of the direction you're taking this.

Also, lol at Drifter thinking 3" is huge. That's what I'll be running...

Yeah Paul is excited about my car and our little project. They are doing a great deal of work for me at a good cost, plus I should be making a great deal of power on this bad boy. Lets just say... I'm throwing on something that rhymes with Sosworth fintake minifold.

LOL @ Uhaul trailer.

I had Christine on one of those when I took her in for some repairs before I came to Japan.

Good fun looking back at the rear view and seeing her go all wobbly.

Something like this? It's a beautiful piece indeed.

SPOILER

BTW, that is NOT my car...wish it was though!

Hehe yup just like that =)
